Work today is more about managing chaos than getting things done.
Instead of focusing on meaningful work, we increasingly spend our time doing work about work:
Searching for lost files & decisions
Drowning in channels and notifications
Piecing together fragmented messages
Time-consuming meetings & tasks to keep everyone in the loop
We're building Sala, a tool to help you and your team work better in Slack.
Sala is a Slack app that connects siloed work and automating tedious routines. We're currently testing an early version of it with a growing list of early access users. Here's how it works:
1. Create spaces for any topic you care about
Sala connects your team's information across conversations, meetings, and files in Slack in interactive spaces that automatically stay updated and in sync with everything your team is saying and doing. You can zoom in and out, explore, and ask questions right in Slack, and share interactive summaries with your team.
Spaces are made of of modular building blocks that can be combined in different ways to create spaces for just about any topic you care about — for example, decisions made about a topic or everything going on across a cross-functional project.
2. Build routines based on your team’s knowledge
Sala enables you to create smart routines directly within Slack. You can instruct Sala to intelligently collect information from your team, generate interactive summaries and reports, and streamline repetitive processes.
For example, you can build a routine to automate your team's asynchronous standup. Just have Sala collect updates from your team at a designated time and generate an easy-to-navigate summary, complete with expandable highlights. No more chasing down updates or manually compiling reports.
